From Grief to Action is a volunteer-based not-for-profit association in British Columbia. We are a voice and a support network for families and friends affected by drug use.

Purposes of the Society

To promote recognition of drug use as a health issue.

To raise public awareness of the needs and concerns of drug users and their families, and work towards overcoming stereotypes and marginalization.

To provide and promote support for families and friends of drug users.

To promote effective educational programs designed to prevent drug abuse.

To promote and work towards the establishment of a comprehensive continuum of care for drug users which meets their needs for harm reduction, detoxification, treatment, and recovery, in order that they may achieve and maintain healthy, productive lives.

Our Financial Model

Our membership fees are designed to make it affordable for anyone to express support for our objectives by joining FGTA.

Donations, bequests and sponsorships keep us going. The Board directors of FGTA are grateful to the donors and funders whose support has ensured the Society’s continued success, and greatly appreciate the support of governments and health authorities.

Supportive gifts take many forms. For example, supermarket bakeries and others have donated refreshments to our annual general meeting.
